Popular weekends and holiday dates can fill up even faster in DC, so if you’re planning something during graduation season, summer, or around the end-of-year holidays, locking in your venue 1 to 3 months ahead is a good idea. That said, some apartment-style venues on Tagvenue offer last-minute availability — just expect fewer options and potentially higher rates the closer you get to your event date.
